* The Maverick Guide to Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia: 3rd Edition Reviews

A More Personal Guide
I really don't enjoy reading guidebooks where the author simply lists places to stay, restaurants with locations, and sights to see without any hint of the quality of the place. How does one choose? I have been to Asia many times, but this will be my first trip to Laos and Cambodia. I realize this book is outdated, given its copyright, but plan to use it anyway (with notes from others to supplement). The cities, hotels, and restaurants will probably still be there, certainly with prices higher than those quoted in the book. However, I have had this experience from the most well-known of travel books with quite recent copyrights, so won't be surprised when this happens (I almost ran out of money once in Sri Lanka when prices were triple what I had read they would be). Examples of the personal note from Mr. Rutledge's book: "Without a doubt this is my favorite city in Laos.", "The choice of accomodations in Luang Prabang is quite clear.", "My favorite...

>> Song of the Buffalo Boy (Great Episodes) Half Off

Song of the Buffalo boy
Song of the Buffalo Boy is a wonderful book about some of the effects of the war in Vietnam. It was written by Sherry Garland. It is 282 pages, but has a double-spaced format, which makes it fly by. It tells the story of a fifteen year old farm girl in a town near Da Nang, Vietnam. She is very tall, with large hands and curly black hair. This is because she is Amerasian. During the Vietnam war, many Vietnamese women slept with soldiers for money. Loi remembers being with a tall blonde man and her mother when she was young. He seemed kind, and gentle. She has a picture of herself, her mother and this soldier. She is certain that this is her father, although whenever she brings up the subject her mother won't tell her anything. Her dream is to go to America and find her father. She has no idea about the Amerasian Homecoming project, which was set up in Vietnam for children of the wars. It was a real program that gave over 80,000 Amerasian children the opportunity to go to America.. The...

^ The Obamians: The Struggle Inside the White House to Redefine American Power Sale

The Obamians
In The Obamians, a somewhat wonky term used to describe the chief Obamian (Obama) and his Obamians (aides), James Mann attempts to discern, through his foreign policy, an Obama doctrine. While his domestic policy has been hampered by Democrat (Guantanamo) and Republican (Obamacare, nee Romneycare) alike, day-to-day foreign policy execution does not require congressional approval. Foreign policy then, unlike domestic, is a "clear test of his underlying ideas and choices."

Obama chose his inner circle among a small and informal network of people with no foreign policy experience to purposely cultivate an image of Washington outsiders. His appointment of Hillary Clinton, a pragmatic decision to remove her from the Senate where she could possibly form a coalition against him, required a revamping of this image, and thus was born the "team of rivals" phrase to give a "grand historical gloss to the uneasy merger of the Obama and Clinton teams." In contrast, Bush's aides, his...

>> The Road of Lost Innocence: The True Story of a Cambodian Heroine Discount

Devastating story of a woman's rise from a life of abuse to rescue others
The Road of Lost Innocence by Somaly Mam is a heart-breaking story of a woman's fight out of slavery and her quest to save others from suffering as she did. Somaly was raised in the forests of Cambodia in a primitive tribe without electricity or running water. Living in the remote jungles, her parents abandoned her and left her with a grandmother who then died before Somaly could remember any of them. She raised herself until the age of eleven, sleeping in a hammock, fishing for some meals, and receiving some little care from the rest of the villagers. At eleven, a man claiming to be her grandfather took her to a larger city and used her as slave labor, beating her and forcing her to work for others as well. She learned how to read at a small school run by a man who claimed to be her uncle and tried to do his weak best by her. At fifteen, her grandfather sold her into a violent marriage with a soldier, until he disappeared, and the grandfather appeared again to sell her into a brothel...

^ The Last Valley: Dien Bien Phu and the French Defeat in Vietnam Half Off

The Best Account of this Battle so Far
"The Last Valley: Dien Bien Phu and the French Defeat in Vietnam" by Martin Windrow is destined to be the definite account of this tragic battle. I knew as soon as I saw this title in the bookshop that I had to have it and it was one of the best purchases I have made so far this year!

This is an excellent and detailed account of the fighting in the Valley of Dien Bien Phu between the professional French forces, including Legionnaire and elite Parachute Units, and the Vietnamese Bo Doi (Viet Minh) led by General Giap.

The author takes the time to explain the military and political settings of the war in Indo China, offers detailed accounts of the opposing forces and commanders and provides a well researched narrative of the events leading up to this battle. The story of the battle itself for Dien Bien Phu is a classic military narrative that really pulls the reader into the story and gives us a rare insight into the hardships of the French soldier and his enemy.

^ This Time We Win: Revisiting the Tet Offensive Promo Offer

Outstanding
James Robbins is not interested in recrimination as much as he is in explanation. Yes, he sets the record straight on Tet, but the book does so much more than that. It demonstrates that most Americans supported the war in Vietnam, and argues convincingly that we were winning that war. The tragedy of Tet was not that we lost, nor that this battle proved we could not win. Just the opposite: Tet showed (and Robbins proves) that the enemy was weak, and that our strategy was working. The real failure was one of understanding, especially at the highest levels. Even there, though, Robbins does not play the blame game. He is sympathetic to the demands of leadership, even if he criticizes those who fail to display it. And the author also refuses to reduce the war to a bumper sticker complaint about the media. Robbins shows the mistakes of particular individuals, but there is no simplistic blanket criticism here. The book is well researched, well argued, and above all well written,...

* Fielding's Southern Vietnam on Two Wheels: The Ups & Downs of Solo Motorcycling Through Exotica Sale

A Fun and Quick Read Highlighting What to See
This is NOT a comprehensive book on Vietnam. This tiny book is only 6-1/2 inches by 4 inches and has 147 pages with small black and white images throughout. The author, Wink Dulles, has a very candid writing style and tells you the ups and downs of traveling in Vietnam. This book was released in 1995, so is somewhat dated yet the places worth seeing have not changed that much since then. You do not have to plan on touring Vietnam by motorcycle to get a lot out of this book. It is mainly for anyone who is interested in Vietnam and may want to hop on a bike at some point to get around. I traveled throughout Vietnam and rented bikes along the way but did not tour Vietnam by bike. This book is an aid with a lot of worthwhile information that no other books will mention. Ironically and sadly, the author, Wink Dulles was killed in a motorcycle accident in June 2001 while in Southeast Asia. If you want an in depth book on Vietnam then skip this book. Use it as a supplement, it is excellent...

* Confessions of a Paper Pimp: A lusty journey from Ohio to Vietnam to Chicago and Dubue Reviews

Racy Novel About Men's Magazine Business
In Sam Bauman's Confessions of a Paper Pimp, a young man named Jake Gelbach begins his story by explaining that the most important aspect of him is that he is the son of a newspaperman. This doesn't initially seem to be the case as he recounts a typical 1950s adolescence fixated on girls and sex. After high school, Jake goes on to join the Air Force and ends up flying the high-altitude U-2 reconnaissance plane during the 1960s in the Far East. After the Air Force moves him around from Tokyo to Hong Kong, Jake is eventually discharged and he goes to work in journalism, staying for a time in the Far East.

Eventually, Jake journeys to Europe with a new Chinese girlfriend. They travel in grand style from Paris to Italy, and we're treated to a hedonistic lifestyle of gourmet meals mixed with nearly continuous sex. Just as we begin to think that Jake has only one thing on his mind, we get a big surprise, which removes Jake's girlfriend from his proximity, and we realize that...

>>> Fearless Photographer: Travel Review

Very informative and great photos
I bought this book because I'm traveling to Cambodia soon, and it will be the first time I've taken along my new Nikon D600 camera, and I wanted to get some great shots while I'm there. This book is soooo thorough. It takes you from the early planning stages of a trip, all the way to getting home and sharing your photos on Facebook. So the educational part is definitely strong, and that is topped off with a whole book full of colorful, amazing photos of places around the world, and a how-to for most of the photos that are featured. So glad I got this book, and am looking forward to applying the principles to my photos from Cambodia.

* Fire in the Hole: A Mortarman in Vietnam Discount

Review: Fire in the Hole
My brother has finally made his peace, his absolution about a time in his life where his horrid memories remained locked tighter than a mummy's tomb. The tomb has been opened as Orange takes readers from Marine Boot Camp to the jungles of VietNam on a journey so explicitly unravelled you'd think you were with him every anxiouss step of the way.

Orange's account is vidid, clear and noncondescending--a profile of a young man experiencing his rights of passage through a hellacioius war that nobody wanted to be in and everybody wanted to be out of.

From passing the poop at Parris Island, South Carolina to passing the mortars at Que Son Mountain, Orange shares his tears and fears, love and losts and whole lot in between his journey that started as a middle class wanna-be priest from the suburbs to a mortar man in Nam.

It's a cover-to-cover, one-sit read----and that's not because he's my borther. He did a damn good job!

I found this book to be insightful as it portends to the time frame that it discusses. I think that the chapter on Thomas Merton was particularly interesting and thought-provoking and it motivated me to read more writings by Merton. I think John C. Trejo's book is great for anyone to read who is interested in history of the 20th century or in history of Civil Rights. I highly recommend this book.

^ Bound for Vietnam Review

natural writer
I have read a few of Lydia Laube's books. What I most admire about her writing is that unlike many travel writers she doesn't try to be funny. She just tells the story and lets the incidents do the entertaining. There is nothing forced about her stories. As a result in a few pages you are hooked and you feel you are traveling with her. Anyone interested in starting a career as a travel writer could do a lot worse than read all her books to learn the trade. She is one of the best travel writers out there.

^ Land of the Ascending Dragon: Rediscovering Vietnam Discount

Vietnam is not just another name for war
The authors do an excellent job of transposing the "American Image" of Vietnam into the beautiful and complex country that it really is. It draws from that "American Image" rooted in the drama of the war years, and gradually leads us to a clearer understanding of just what the country is today (and what it was before the intensity of the U.S. involvement)and where it may go in the future. It is encouraging, and very hopeful, to see the country and its people re-anchored in their traditional values--in spite of the current relic of communism--and to appreciate the renewed emphasis on education, family, business, and integration into the world economy. Clearly, it has been a long hard row to hoe, but it is moving in the right direction. Jack Smith's introduction lays this out, and it is reenforced by the text and Mr. Raymer's revealing photographs. The result is a far better sense of place and people.

An American Encounters Vietnam
The House on Dream Street is the story of Dana Sach's sojourn in Vietnam; as she explores day to day life in Hanoi. As she becomes intimately involved in the activities and lives of her circle of acquaintances - her landlords and their extended families, neighbors and the street cafes on Dream Street (where she lives), and ultimately her lover, she beings to see beneath the surface and to discover Vietnam as it is, rather than as she expected.

Readers will enjoy this personal account of life in Vietnam. She has a gift for recounting each conversation verbatim, so that the account of her time flows swiftly as you read. Interspersed with the dialogue are her thoughtful comments on Vietnamese life and her personal reactions to events.

^ Destination Saigon: Adventures in Vietnam Reviews

Travel Writing at Its Best
"Destination Saigon" is one of my all-time favorite travel books. Some travel books will tell you what to expect in such-and-such country, but in this book, I actually feel as though I am on the journey beside author Walter Mason, whose descriptions read like scenes from a novel and whose own effusive personality makes for the ideal traveling companion. I particularly love Mason's sense of humor. For example, once when Mason's trying to observe a Buddhist holiday, a local celebrity walks into a vegetarian restaurant and all thoughts of spiritual awakening fly out the window as everyone turns to gawk and gossip. As Mason writes: "Don't look now," hissed Kien, my fashionable young companion, "but a movie star has just walked in the door--and he's got monks with him!" He then goes on to describe the feigned outrage and of course envy such a celebrity engenders as his companion analyzes the star's every move. Mason often displays a charming sense of humor in his scenes of interactions...

>> Trailblazer South East Asia: The Graphic Guide Discount

When is this format going to be used for other regions!?
In the past 2 years I have been on the road for over 1 year. Most recently returning from a 7 month trip which included Australia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, India, Nepal, UAE, and Qatar among others.

I took this guidebook with me (No chance of finding it in bookstores I suspected correctly).

The author uses a very innovative map system with symbols to quickly show the traveler what is worth visiting, what is not, and how to get there - by bus, air, or train. The symbols and limited text also show where to stay. Train schedules in small tables too. The author provides just the right amount of descriptive text about the various countries to keep yourself out of trouble and/or pique your interest.

What this map system does is help eliminate the "Head stuck in guidebook" that can befall any traveler - experienced or not.
Many guidebooks like to "hand-hold" travelers almost to the point where some of the fun of traveling is removed...

> Marble Mountain: A Vietnam Memoir Review

Winning The Hearts & Minds of People Who Chain Themselves To A .50 Cal Machine Gun Is Going To Be A Tough Sell!"
Is "Marble Mountain" a humorous book, a memoir, a personal legacy, or a war story regarding the author's plight as a Huey helicopter pilot in the early stages of the Vietnam War? The answer really depends on who is reading it. Regardless of who that is, Bud Willis's book revealed disturbing futuristic trends of a war America was only seeing, metaphorically speaking, the tip of the iceberg as to its unavoidable climax. In making this statement, there are several factors to consider. Willis selected the May 7, 1954 French surrender at Dien Bien Phu to Ho Chi Minh's forces, known then as the "Viet Minh," as his starting point. Hell In A Very Small Place: The Siege Of Dien Bien Phu It should also be noted that within two years of this, America's casualties would commence.

^ Journalistas: 100 Years of the Best Writing and Reporting by Women Journalists Promo Offer

Lots of great writing and insightful observation
Forget that these are women journalists and writers - this is just good writing. In these days when magazines have become primarily picture books with captions it's edifying to look back over a hundred years of excellent writing. The focus leans, as one would expect from the title, toward a feminist viewpoint but whether writing about themselves, their homes, or the world these are all excellent essays. The contents are arranged chronologically by chapter and this gives another interesting insight into growing attitudes with time. Really a good book.

~ No Direction Home: The American Family and the Fear of National Decline, 1968-1980 Reviews

The Family crisis in America
I had to purchase this book for an American Studies course at the University of Massachusetts Boston and it was the best choice for my final paper. Natasha Zaretsky has outlined for us the several ways in which the American family has become the backdrop for American national sympathy especially when at war. The strategy of using the family almost always had a connection with the government and vice versa the connection with the government and the family. If you would like to know more about the 1970's and the issues that surrounded the Vitenam war and the rise of Reagan, I suggest that you read this book.

~ The Fighting Tomahawk: An Illustrated Guide to Using the Tomahawk and Long Knife as Weapons Big SALE

CHOPPING, THROWING AND SCALPING - THE TOMAHAWK AT WAR
I came across this book because I had bought a LaGana Tactical Tomahawk (VTAC) for use on one of my deployments to Iraq but it never came in time for me to bring, but was able to deploy back to Afghanistan with it in tote. I guess I thought I was going to do some close-quarters combatives on Taliban/Al-Qaeda vermin with the final blow eliminating the threat and ending it with the "trophy" scalping. Needles to say I did not ever scalp any one... or really ever planned to. But I now owned this Tomahawk and need something to do with it.
My intentions when purchasing this Tomahawk, was due to the history I knew of the weapon being used by Rangers (Rogers Rangers from the Colonel days mid 1700s) up to Vietnam and on into Iraq/Afghanistan by other units. Incidentally the VTAC was modeled after the style used by rangers in Vietnam. So...

> AP U.S. History For Dummies Reviews

Well-written, comprehensive, engaging
I really enjoyed reading this book. It's not easy to make history come alive, especially with the looming threat of a major exam. This book doesn't just summarize facts that you might need for the exam. It takes the drudgery out of the exam review. I found myself forgetting that preparation for the exam was the focus and just enjoying the history that became truly compelling in this book. I really think that it would be helpful if this book were used in classrooms along with other methods of test prepration. It is comprehensive without ever being dull, and it's written with wit and compassion. If it's possible to take the stress out of preparation for an AP exam, this book accomplishes that task.

^ The Rough Guide to Travel Online - 2nd Edition Reviews

Still relevant
This little book was published in 2004. The Internet and the hundreds of thousands of websites on it are ever changing and fluid. Although I didn't check out all of the websites in the book, I was surprised at how many were still up and running from the ones I did!

As with any book that concentrates on online resources, with time and effort you can obviously find everything the author did. This compact reference though saves you time by having done the research.

A nice aspect to the book is the organization. It is organized by the basics which includes airlines, trains, buses, accommodations and more. This section is followed by themes and activities (sports, walking, health etc), a section on special accomodations (children, disabilities etc) and specialist holidays. The final section is country-by-country.

Yes, some of the websites have fallen victim to the economy, but the organization of the book will allow you to add on your searches to find that...
